Personal Statement
Kieran Gaertner | IMLCARecruits (sportsrecruits.com)
As a child, I was often asked: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" I always needed help with how to answer that. However, there was one thing that I knew for certain - I wanted to excel in lacrosse. My ultimate objective was to play alongside a team that shared in both successes and failures and to become a leader on that team. To attain my dream, I always seek guidance from my coaches, personal trainers, fellow athletes, and even my father. I have dedicated countless hard work to get where I am today. As the saying goes, hard work surpasses talent when talent doesn't work hard. Moreover, I have prioritized enhancing my study skills and grades because I trust that being the best version of myself, both academically and athletically, will make my team "the Winning Team."
